    This is all based in NI with some really nice scenes in it. The SLNC Loco slipping with the cattle train is ace.

    Too Kind Leslie, I too turned my nose up at NG for ages but perhaps I now long for a slower pace these days! I find myself viewing quite a lot of lovely European NG railways and these really capture my interest these days. Somehow I don't see myself getting to Austria anytime soon but hope too in the future at some stage. Maybe get Air Power Airshow in at the same time. cheers George.

    Pantograph testing with the 1st span installed. Next one later this week. May need to do 4. Note to self straight platforms are easier.

    Been a while since my last post. Busy ol summer out and about along with a wee bit of plastic modelling plus the daughter got into UCC so budget is well squeezed. Anyhow put these gantrys off for too long but lots of reading and the Somerfelt catenary book came in handy. Look pretty OK. Towers a bit over the scene but tis to scale.

    Sorry DJ, dont check in here much anymore. It was finished in the end and running (I did not take many vids) but sadly my father Died in Feb last so the railway is being maintained but maybe it will live again in my own garden at some stage. I don't have the heart to take it up right now, Until orders are received from my Mum then I will take a look at it.

    Yep, The model railway stuff that you could turn over to our friends in Blighty and even sometimes make a few bob on those special collectables is now a near worthless millstone, Just keep it now to enjoy but buying less and less now . Too much stuff anyhow.

    going up in price again in Sept. From September 5th 2025, the customs administration fee payable will change to €5.95. Customs charges and administration fees are payable by the receiver on items coming into Ireland from outside of the EU/EEA

    Cellulose thinners will move that but not on your cutting mat. Good words from the Maestro

    Good effort but you seem to be layering on the paint way too heavy,. A few light coats each time to build it up is the way to go. Are you using different types of paint as the cracking tends to be caused by acrylics and enamels on top of each other? This affect looks good.

    Well Dapol have beaten the A team with releasing a Bulleid Light pacific with top specs. Bit price heavy @ £400, Diecast Body, Love the lights. seems to be none above the valve gear which is a shame. The oil smoke I dont like so much. The sound on the Vid is from an A4 The Conundrum is do I get one and reduce all the Hornby ones to srcap line or just be happy with what I have right now. Pity they don't do a Partially payments.
